Worrying gum issues

Sherrybomb

My gums have been very sore recently and have begun bleeding out of nowhere.. There is also a constant strange taste in my mouth, which is almost metallic. I brush my teeth everyday and have pink, healthy looking gums so I'm a little worried.. anyone ever gone through anything similar??

Also, what is the average cost of a dental appointment? And can anyone recommend a good dentist, preferably in the South Dublin/Dun Laoghaire area??

Thanks

are your gums healthy and pink or are they bleeding and painful?

sounds like ANUG (OMG!). http://www.google.ie/search?q=anug&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=MlS&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&prmd=imvnsb&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=qSkDT_jPGdSyhAebv5ibAQ&ved=0CDkQsAQ&biw=1024&bih=629

go see a dentist asap for diagnosis and treatment.

initial cost should not be too much (30 -100).

sorry, don't know any good dentists in south dublin :P
